If I'm using the wrong compiler, distutils should say so,
instead of showing me a 10-level KeyError traceback...

It looks (to me) like it's expecting you to have some
additional package (Framework SDK?) installed. The code in
question was added as part of the MSVC7 support - are you
building with MSVC6?
